  • Wow ..

    Im such a bad blog poster… bad newbie bad newbie!
    But im really really trying to get around to EVERYTHING, but the day only has 24 hours im afraid. Even though i dont sleep many of them im still struggeling to keep up. Mostly because today is my first day off for around 2 weeks hehe.

    Im going to set 3 things as my goal today.

    • Change the theme of the site
    • Get my hair cut
    • Post (if any are good enough) some of my photography from work

    Also should i by miracle find more time, i will be playing HL2 Episode one, or perhaps give painting a little try again. Sorry again you all, but at least im pushing forward πŸ˜€

  • Okay so im a workaholic ! πŸ˜‰

    Okay i got called into work monday, and yesterday. Needless to say after spending all day sweating like a pig (oh yeah the weather is tropical now ;)) i went home and drank about a small lakes worth of cool liquid πŸ˜€
    Today i got off, so i will spend the most part of it getting my paperwork up to date, and then i will start speedpainting this afternoon πŸ˜‰ Hopefully i will get a nice image done, and trash about 10 or so hehe πŸ˜€

    Also i have found the theme i want on the site, and should be switching one of theese days πŸ˜‰

    What else… uhmm…. nope i got nothing… NOTHING ! Gonna go now.. bbl

  • And a voice cried out “It is done!”

    Yep final exam passed πŸ˜‰

    So now i got my summer vacation ahead of me. That is vacation in the sence i have two jobs im juggeling through out the whole summer to make ends meet πŸ˜‰
    The rest of this week is pretty booked up with alot of work, since we have to get the whole exibit (first job) setup before saturday, were we open for the public. But most of next week is pretty much open, so i should be starting speedpainting there i hope πŸ˜€

    Also i have decided on getting a new theme on the site, and already looked at a couple, that i hope to play around with before the weekend πŸ˜€

    So updates will be comming at more frequent intervals than once every 14 days from now on. Also im considering posting stuff via digg.com, but havent decided yet. Easy way to post some of the news i find interesting, but at the same time it’s not really my own content. So dont konw yet about that.

    Uhmm wrapping up here, before i head to bed to get ready for tomorrow. Yeah check out Zach Braffs new homepage. It’s pretty cool, with some nice video blog posts and previews on the upcomming movie The Last Kiss. Links to some awsome music, were he plugs Joshua Radin amongs others. I also highly reccomend his mucis (Joshua Radin) .. especially “closer” and “winter”. Favorite songs, that i plan on learning on my guitar when i get better πŸ˜€

    Thats it for now. Just letting you all know im back baby ! πŸ˜€

  • Two down, two to go

    Okay the day i can continue posting random wierd crazy thoughts (like i have much else huh ?) here. I have passed 2 out of 4 exams this semester so far.. so only around two more weeks untill i can both start painting, and posting πŸ˜€ Yah!

    Anyhow weather is being great and things are picking up πŸ˜‰ Studying is getting alot better and hopefully i can pass all my exams and have a good summer πŸ˜€

    So untill then i will be afk, gone, not here alot, mostly around and somewhere in the vecinity of that place im near…. uhmm yeah … like that. !!!!

  • Been a month already ?!

    Okay im sorry for not updating anything for the past month.

    Been crazy busy with the project, which we finished in time and handed in last week. Then we had a smaller programming assignment to finish and not its the dreaded exam time. So i will propably be pretty much laying off the site for the following 3 weeks time.. but after that i will be back for better or worse πŸ˜€

  • What a weekend :D!!

    Okay that was fun ! πŸ˜€
    Friday started with poker with the guys around 10 in the morning at the university. After a case of beers, we continued the game at the bar and somehow the party thinned out as we drank more and more πŸ˜€ We hit the town for some pool, and somebody got the idea to goto another town to party there.
    We tried taking the train and after a “short” delay of the train, we were on our way. However unable to buy tickets onboard the train we got “kicked off” to buy tickets, and didnt have enought time so the train left us stranded hehe Oh well so we drank for around 2 hours in that town, and took the last train our to the original destination πŸ˜€
    There we had a bit of fun at a private party, however when we hit the town it got boring πŸ™ Oh well pizza and time to crash at a friends place πŸ˜€ So we basically woke up in another city after a party hehe πŸ˜€

    The rest of the weekend was a heck of alot quieter, with some good oldschool movies (Turtles 1 and 2 are hillarious!) and nothing else πŸ˜€ Sunday was relaxation and now we have monday πŸ˜€

    The week is gonna be pretty much my head buried in a book, or my computer doing alot of studies πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€

  • Greatest Love Stories ?!

    Been a little while since i wrote the draft for this.. so im not gonna bother correcting various aspects of it. I’m just gonna let the rambling i did while pretty sleep deprived hit this website and generate whatever negative traffic and comments it will πŸ˜‰ But please keep in mind that i was sleep deprived when writnig the above, and i have NOT looked it over since… felt it funnier not to πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ Enjoy !

    I was watching Greys Anatomy last night and i got to thinking. A real tearjerker of an episode was about love ect, all the usual.

    Sudenly one of the addvertisement tags from movies like Romeo and Juliet hit me.

    “Greatest Love Story of All Time”

    WTF !!!
    How come a tragic love story is the greatest ? Wouldnt a happy ending be more fitting for a great love story ? I dont really see why a tale of two destiny entwined lovers fighting fate and odds ending in tragic misery can be the greatest love story.
    Basically this also equals a story about some random dude killing off, lets say a small town in the name of his long lost love or something to be the even greater love story ?

    Furthermore now we have an even “greater” love story comming out. Tristan and Isolde was before Romeo and Juliet apparently. Hmm thats gotta be the time in the story. WOW lemme just write the first love story ever !

    Now once upon before time there was 2 peices of nothing. The met and couldnt be together.. well lets face it. Nothing cant be with nothing. It’s gonna wind up in nothing.
    It all ends up with “the big bang”.

    Wasnt this the love story before Tristan and Isolde ?

    Okay okay but still… bad publicity for romantic saps. Not that the stories are bad or anything, but i just dont get why this is the greatest love story of all time ect.
    Pr definition i would think that the greatest story would somehow end up happy or at least have some good outcome. Two people in love, despite the circumstances wind up dead and wreak havoc on the people around them doesnt really seem like the happy fuzzy bunny ending of a nice story. Might be dramatic and hell of a tragic tale. But hardly the greatest “love” story.

  • Midweek

    Okay the week hasnt been as bad as expected just yet.

    We have a programming assignment, that i almost finished. Expect to put in the finishing touches tomorrow during the afternoon. Basically making an abstracted shared calender. The assignment is to make several threads read and write to the calender without neither locking the whole calender for 1 user, nor make it possible to get a deadlock. Also the data must be correct at all times πŸ˜€
    It’s easier than it sounds so far, so im hoping to finish tomorrow and pass this assignment πŸ˜€

    The weekend is still pretty free.. friday might be some poker with the guys from the university. Should be fun, but hey even if i get drunk as a skunk (and i do that.. skunks actually get jealous of me… why they drink i dont know, but you try being that small and stinky!) i will be up and running saturday to do some of my famed painting πŸ˜€ Well it’s famous in my own mind.. and so am I ! πŸ˜€

    Im gonna get back to making some dinner now, and see if i can get some bright ideas for the calender project. I will of course publish the source files here when im done. the site is pityfully low on programming content, since .. well i havent been programming DUH ! πŸ˜€

    Untill next time behave, and dont do anything i wish i was in on.. πŸ˜€

    PS: Found this little old links bashing MS and promoting Firefox πŸ˜€ And if you didnt already know im a firefox kinda of guy πŸ˜€

    Firefox above all other πŸ˜€

  • It’s all over

    Weekend is all over! This sucks.. why is it that the weekend is always 1 day too short ?! Kinda like starting the diet “tomorrow” everyday hehe πŸ˜€

    Anyhow the weekend is as you figured at it’s end.. nothing productive happened, and im REALLY not looking forward to the upcomming week. Heck i feel so swamped suddenly and i just want it all to be over with …
    Im starting to use my digital camera a bit, but so far havent done anything productive with it yet.Β  And … well now im heading to bed early or something.. dont have anything to say today .

  • Wow what a day

    Okay been a bit of a rough day, but i got through it.
    Heck it even got really really good towards the end, making me smile as im writng this πŸ˜‰
    I didnt get any sleep last night, but after a good dose of caffine when i arrived at the university i got up and running. Had a few funny episodes due to fattique (whatΒ  can you say .. coherent speech and thought isnt your strong points after no sleep) i made it through. When i got home i managed to sleep for a couple of hours on and off. Yah ! I even got so refreshed that i went to the gym and finished my regular exercise program and added 4 km on the rowing machine.

    So now im writing this after finishing the reading for tomorrow course(s). Technically there are 2 courses for me tomorrow, but i have to skip number two due to work. Getting off work late tomorrow so wont be doing much of anything there. Saturday is reserved for working for the University. Some presentation of the awards for papers done in coorporation with the university.

    So if i dont see you have a good weekend.

    PS: I actually have a little bit about “greatest love” comming up. Me ranting and raving like a madman.. funny what happens when you dont get enough sleep huh ? πŸ˜‰
